I would not allow guests to deep fry a turkey in my listing. There is too much danger of fire.

As it’s done outside, I wouldn’t worry too much about the oil being messy. I would worry about the house burning down.

GUmmmm what about on the concrete around the pool? They did not ask… so I never had an opportunity to say no. Surprised they did not ask permission

Please excuse my errors and brevity from typing

I don’t have a pool or any concrete in my yard. As hot oil can splash on a flammable object even on concrete the only person I would allow to deep fry a turkey in my yard is Alton Brown.

And since we have meandered into Alton Brown, my second favorite episode is the one where he builds a smoker out of a Terra Cotta planting pot and smokes some salmon.

Uhmmmmmmm… that is the other piece of the issue. Not their house. They will dump it anywhere they think they can which is a horrifying thought.

Why is this such a trend??? Deep frying turkey. Isn’t this holiday caloric enough?
